Hello everyone -

I tripped on this blog post describing two studies recently conducted by Erik Eddy and Caroline D’Abate.  The link to the full post and an excerpt are below.



http://scholarlyteacher.com/2016/11/10/stop-assigning-team-projects-unless/



Excerpt:



When taken together, results of these two studies suggest that:



  1.  Faculty who assign team projects without preparing their students to work in teams greatly increase the likelihood that students will have a negative experience and student learning and performance will suffer.

  2.  Teaching teamwork content is necessary but not sufficient for important educational and performance outcomes.

  3.  Providing ongoing teamwork support is critical to team success and student learning. Faculty who provide ongoing team support maximize student engagement and learning in the classroom.



cheers,

lm
